Once in front of the hospital, Ookami hopped off Naruto's back. "Thanks for the lift, Naruto. But I have to be going now. Good luck with your sensei."

"Ah man, okay. See ya, Ookami!" He gave her a grin and she waved goodbye.

Ookami then turned on her heel and sniffed at the air. 'Gaara.' In the blink of an eye she was gone, then appeared behind Gaara who was standing behind a wooden fence, his arms crossed.

He glared down at her, but she just stared back at him. They stood like this for a moment, nobody saying a word. Until Gaara's raspy voice finally emerged.

"Stop wasting your time on that idiot. You need to be getting information about the Uchiha."

Ookami's nose wrinkled for a moment, hearing Sasuke's name. She didn't like the raven haired Leaf ninja.

"I understand Gaara, but Naruto is his team mate. He can tell me things about Sasuke too. Hanging around just Sasuke makes it look more suspicious. I also refuse to look like one of his pathetic fangirls." Ookami rolled her pretty eyes, placing a hand on her hip.

Gaara internally smirked at her comment about being a fangirl.

"Let's get going then." Gaara turned and lead the way to their apartment.

It was a full moon. There would be no sleep for Gaara or Ookami tonight. Both of their bloodlusts kicked into overdrive under full moons.

Ookami, who was in her wolf form, was running through the forests around the Leaf Village, trying to drain her energy. She had left Gaara to his own thoughts a top a building. But she suddenly halted, her claws digging up the dirt. Sand was whisping around her ears and lightly at her neck. It was seeming to be pulling her back towards the way she came. "Gaara.." Her violet eyes shot back to where she left him. She let out a howl and her paws thundered across the ground.

"My, my don't you ever sleep?" Dosu asked Gaara. Gaara looked down at him.

"What do you want?"

"Well, I was going to kill you and your furry pet in your sleep but it seems plans have changed. See, if I beat you now, then I'll be able to go against who I really want, Sasuke." Dosu told the red head.

"I wonder which is faster? Your sand, or my sound?" Dosu lifted up his sleeve.

The two boys then heard a howl in the not far distance.

Gaara's eyes narrowed down at the Sound nin and his voice turned darker. "When the moon is full, it's blood boils."

Dosu's eye then bulged. "What-what in the world are you??"

As soon as he said that Ookami leapt onto the roof top beside Gaara

As soon as he said that Ookami leapt onto the roof top beside Gaara. She barked, drool dripping from her fangs, and snarled fiercely.

Gaara sent an attack at the poor Sound ninja, killing him instantly. As the dust cleared on the rooftop you could see the blood. Gaara, back to himself, breathed heavily as he tried to stand straight back up.

Ookami pressed her muzzle close to his face, showing her teeth to him in a snarl.

"Don't worry Ookami, you'll get yours."

The large beast snorted, raising her head to normal height and looked over at Dosu's body. Her violet eyes glowing magnificently in the darkness.

"So, they are both now in their true forms?" Kabuto asked Baki, who both had watched the whole scene.

"Yes." Baki nodded.

Kabuto smirked. "Very impressive. But the girl, Ookami is it? She isn't a-"

"No. Legend tells the tale that when The Howling Wolf Village was being attacked by Roen, a powerful sage found a wolf pup when meditating in the forest. He used an unknown jutsu on the wolf pup to give her the ability to transform into a human, to become a great ninja who possessed both ninja and beast skills to protect his village against intruders and Roen. Although the wolf did defeat Roen, the Howling Wolf Village saw her as a monster herself. They mistreated her and eventually ran her out of the village for good. That is when Gaara found her."

"And now the Sand Village has two master weapons." Kabuto gave a laugh. "So, why doesn't the one tail kill her?" He looked at Baki.

Baki stared at his two students. "She can speak to him. I believe he see's her as an equal....or even as a weapon for his own uses." Baki now looked at Kabuto. "She makes deals with the one tail. You see, the wrist bands she wears are to covers her scars there. She has deep scars there. She makes deals that if he lets Gaara sleep he can feed off of her."

"Well, isn't that romantic." Kabuto smirked. Baki narrowed his eyes for a moment. The Sand sensei did care about Ookami and knew she had strong feelings for Gaara. But not only was she looking out for him by making deals like that with the beast, she was also protecting the village from harm.

"Let's get on to the plan to take down the Leaf Village." Baki said.
